General

The manual lists monuments within the meaning of Section 1 of the Monument Protection Act , i.e. immovable and movable objects of historical, artistic and other cultural significance regardless of whether there is a public interest in their preservation. On the one hand, the Dehio is an aid to monuments research, on the other hand, an art guide , as it should also spread the appreciation for art and cultural monuments.

Work on Lower Austria south of the Danube began in 1989/90 when the Dehio Lower Austria north of the Danube was going to print . Because of its size, it was necessary to divide it into two volumes. Since the division into quarters under the Vienna Woods and quarters above the Vienna Woods is only absolutely present to a few users, the locations were arranged in alphabetical order, part 1 from A to L and part 2 from M to Z.

For the courtesy and the patient helpful support of the pins were Clemens Lashofer , Gregory Martin Lechner and Udo Fischer for the Göttweig , Gregor Henckel-Donnersmarck and Werner Richter for Heiligenkreuz , Maximilian Fürnsinn for Herzogenburg Abbey , Bernhard Backovsky and Floridus Roehrig for the Stift Klosterneuburg , Matthew Nimmervoll and Norbert Mussbacher for Lilienfeld , Georg Wilfinger and Burkhard Ellegast for Melk , Berthold Heigl and Benedikt Wagner for Seitenstetten called.

Numerous people supported the processors with their specialist knowledge; The diocesan curator for Vienna Hiltigund Schreiber , Eva Berger from the Institute for Landscape Design and Garden Art, Huberta Weigl (Vienna) to Jakob Prandtauer , Erwin Reidinger (Wiener Neustadt / Winzendorf) to the company itself, Rupert Wimmer for dendrochronological data, Karl Schütz for the organ texts .
